LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lakeport City Council’s three new members will be sworn in at the council’s regular meeting this week.
The council will meet beginning at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 18, in the council chambers at Lakeport City Hall, 225 Park St.
Kenny Parlet, Martin Scheel and Marc Spillman, all first-time council members elected Nov. 6, will take their oaths at the Tuesday meeting.
Before they are sworn, the current council will accept a resolution reciting the facts of the election and declaring the results, and approve the certificate of canvass.
The three men will then be sworn and seated, and they will join fellow council members Stacey Mattina and Tom Engstrom to select the mayor and mayor pro tem for 2013.
Business the new council will take up includes the consent agenda, usually accepted on one motion, which this week includes ordinances, minutes, building permits, and receipt and filing of a report from the city clerk in conformance with the California Maddy Act, which requires members of city commissions and committees and their terms of office be posted.
The council also will present awards for the 2012 holiday decorating contest and approve an ordinance adopting the State of California Uniform Construction Cost Accounting Policy.
